Ghazaleh Alizadeh, House of Edrisis, Feminist Thinking, Liberal FeminismResumo
Ghazaleh Alizadeh is an Iranian female writer and critic. In the novel of “House of Edrisis”, which is one of her most important works, she shows her feminist thinking in various ways. In this work, she criticizes the culture of patriarchy, marriage, and motherhood. In addition, judicial and legal laws, such as permission for polygamy, are challenged by Alizadeh in this work. She believes that patriarchy has intruded the mind of the society members, including men and women, and one way to clear the minds of people of this concept is respecting and honoring women. She also demands equal rights for women in terms of the right to education and the right to work. Evaluation of female characters in this work reveals that Roxana (the symbol of liberal feminist women) is the ideal character of Alizadeh, and Mrs. Edrisi and Ligha, who were submissive women in the patriarchy culture, start to fight along with men. According to Alizadeh, the only way for victory of women is their acquaintance with their abilities and rights and ending patriarchal domination. In this paper, we analyze her thoughts with regard to the different feminist doctrinesDownloads
